Evaluation of commercial immunodiffusion reagents for detecting serum anti-Paracoccidioides antibodies [PDF]
Background: Accurate diagnosis of paracoccidioidomycosis is crucial for improving patient outcomes. Paracoccidioides antibody detection by double immunodiffusion (DID) is a convenient diagnostic tool, but testing performance can vary based on certain ...

Urinary cholesterol: its association with a macromolecular protein-lipid complex. [PDF]
The cholesterol-containing complexes in the urine of normal subjects and patients with diseases accompanied by hyperexcretion of urinary cholesterol were characterized. In normal subjects, the major portion of the recovered urinary cholesterol was eluted

Effect of High-Pressure Processing Operating Parameters on Microbial Inactivation and Bioactive Protein Preservation in Bovine Milk: A Systematic Review. [PDF]
ABSTRACT In the U.S., bovine milk is processed using thermal pasteurization to ensure microbial safety. However, this process alters the structure of heat‐sensitive bioactive proteins associated with the functional benefits of raw milk, including antimicrobial, immunomodulatory, and antioxidant proteins.

Diagnostic accuracy of a Brix refractometer to estimate porcine colostrum quality. [PDF]
Abstract Background The objective of this study was to investigate the validity of the Brix refractometer to accurately estimate immunoglobulin G (IgG) concentrations in porcine colostrum, using radial immunodiffusion (RID) as a reference standard. Methods Eighty‐seven composite colostrum samples were collected from sows on a single pig farm between ...

Developing tools for learning immunology using diffusion-based salt precipitation assays: A low-cost alternative for college laboratories. [PDF]
Abstract The Ouchterlony double immunodiffusion technique is used as a teaching tool for studying immune responses and exemplifying differences in antigen–antibody reactions. Although commonplace in undergraduate labs, standardized commercial kits limit learning experiences because they have fixed modalities of use, a low shelf‐life, and impose ...
